Publish Not your original work? Add source Each era has its own folklore and its own myths. In the old days, these were mighty heroes and terrible monsters, then noble knights and beautiful princesses, cowboys shooting without a single miss, and bulletproof superheroes. The contemporary world also has its own myths, and moreover, we face them literally every day. Ask any software engineer you know how many times in their lives they have been asked to fix a desktop - simply because they are "programmers". Or how many times an accountant - even if they have never dealt with a tax report in their entire professional career - receives requests from acquaintances to sort out their taxes? Myths, myths and more myths surround literally every profession, and we create these myths ourselves. Just from watching a couple of James Bond films, we are sure that spies spend their lives doing nothing but driving around in luxury cars wearing insanely expensive suits. Just from watching a couple of children's films, we will strongly believe that the workers at the animal shelter have the most wonderful job in the world, as they pet doggos and kitties all day long. The list is literally endless, and a popular thread starter in the AskReddit community recently helped us by asking people the question: "What's your profession's myth that you regularly need to explain 'It doesn't work like that' to people?" In just a few days, the thread has racked up 2.5K upvotes and over 3.8K comments, bringing together an incredible collection of today's mythology. To make it easier for you to figure out all this abundance, Bored Panda has made a list of the most popular comments of the original thread. So now feel free to read stories on debunking modern myths, scroll to the very end, and if you have your own professional experience that can also dispel some myth literally in the wind, please be sure to tell us about it in the comments.

I’ve seen what happens when owners can’t say goodbye so they don’t. The animal suffers for days to weeks until their bodies finally give out. I have literally seen a dog rotting from the inside out, SOMEHOW still alive, but the owner couldn’t commit to euthanasia so she didn’t and that dog suffered tremendously for it.
Everyone has boundaries to what they can handle. Requiring an otherwise loving, doting, and responsible owner to be present when it was all they could do to make the appointment doesn’t help pets the way you think it does.
Furthermore, in the nine years I’ve worked in this industry, I have *never* experienced what is described in that post. Ever. And my colleagues overwhelmingly agree. We love on them and hug them, and tell them they’re a good boy until they pass. **By the logic in that post, you should also never drop off for sedated or anesthetic procedures either because the process begins the same way (with sedation). How is that pet to know that death is imminent? They don’t.**
You’re projecting your emotions onto people who are already suffering, and you’re not helping pets by shaming owners, and my local, professional cohort overwhelmingly agrees. Graceishh , christopher cornelius Report Final score: 517points POST Deborah Harris Deborah Harris Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Every time I take one of my dogs to the vets they hate it, the Vet always asks me or my partner to stay whilst they do whatever it is they are doing in order to calm the dog down and help her/him relax. There is no way on Gods sweet Earth would I leave my dogs alone whilst being euthanised, no matter how much it would kill me inside I will be there at the end giving them my love and comfort .. 194 194points reply View More Replies...

Weight loss medications are not the easy way out either. They don't work unless the patient does, and even then, sometimes it takes months to find the right combo of meds. And there's still nutrition and exercise requirements.
Basically, being obese is really hard, and getting to a point where one is no longer obese is also really hard, so when you see someone obese, assume that they're doing their best and could use some kindness. insertcaffeine , Andres Ayrton Report Final score: 383points POST Helen Waight Helen Waight Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Yeah, there is no ‘easy way out’ of being obese and for some of us it’s not possible at all (disabled, messed up metabolism due to ED and medications…).

Defibrillators do not restart a heart, they reset a malfunctioning cardiac rhythm. If the heart isn't at least doing something then our options are CPR and meds until we get some kind of rhythm.
Sincerely,
Tired Medic OTTB_Mama , Iain Cameron Report Final score: 367points POST helen gray helen gray Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Yup, the hearty-starty machine is actually a hearty-stoppy machine. A heart needs to have a shockable rhythm, that is it needs to be fibrillating (like quivering) in order to be de-fibrillated. To de-fibrillate means to stop its rhythm which usually, and certainly hopefully, prompts the heart to restart itself in a sinus rhythm. 132 132points reply View More Replies... View more comments #5
My job isn’t “hard” for the reasons most people think: constantly being exposed to and interviewing abused children
It’s hard because 90% of the time, it’s just disgruntled exes calling on each other over nothing..and dealing with grown adults’ drama is exhausting af.

My friend's ex husband called CPS on her and put her life into a tailspin. She did absolutely nothing wrong. The incident in question? Their daughter was angry her phone was taken away as punishment so she told her dad her mom threw the phone at her face. My daughter was there when it happened and said that it was an absolute lie. She felt really bad for not backing up her friend, but I told her the truth was more important. It cost my friend thousands of dollars to fight him in court. 110 110points reply View More Replies...

1) "I noticed my eyes got blurry only after wearing glasses!" That is because your eyes have adjusted to seeing things with more clarity. So of course you're now going to notice when you're missing that clarity whether it be because you took off your glasses or your prescription has changed.
2) "Wearing glasses cause eye strain!" No it doesn't. Your usual eye strain is from working long hours or staring at screens. But you're only noticing it now because the adjustment period when getting glasses for the first time or when getting a new prescription does increase eye strain until you adjust.
3) "I used to never need glasses but now I need new ones every two years! My eyes are getting worse because of glasses!" Refer back to 1. But also you didn't need glasses previously because your eyesight wasn't s**tty enough for you to notice yet or be really othered by it yet. That doesn't mean you didn't actually need them. Your eyesight was probably changing every year even while you didn't notice. Now that you are used to seeing with clarity, you'll notice when things aren't clear and crisp anymore.
I have dealt with many adults who insist they don't need glasses, either distance or reading or both, because they just don't want to concede that their vision isn't great anymore. These are adults with nearsightedness, astigmatism, and sometimes who even need reading correction. And they can't see s**t. Like why are you so stubborn. kirabera , Lisa Fotios Report Final score: 211points POST Lizzy Crit Lizzy Crit Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Because they don't want to admit they're getting old 77 77points reply View More Replies...

It's not your job to lie, deceive, and cheat to get your client acquitted. You give them the best legal defense so that they receive the due process that everyone has a right to.
*"The job of the defense is to make sure the prosecution does theirs."*
If your client is guilty, then the prosecution should be able to prove it fair and square. If they can't then the quality of evidence does not meet the minimum standard and your client should go free. Full stop.
Does that mean the occasional guilty person gets away with it? Yeah. But far worse is a system where innocent people are more likely to go to jail because a s**tty prosecutor's weak arguments were accepted.
A good defense attorney would recognize a losing case and just try to get the best deal for their client, and getting the weaker charges dropped (in case the prosecutor just decides to "throw the book" at them) NoStressAccount , Sadmir Kanovicki Report Final score: 189points POST Strings Strings Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago "Better 100 guilty men go free, than 1 innocent man go to prison" 95 95points reply View More Replies...

Teaching in front of classes is only about 30% of my job. The rest is one-on-one supervision of graduate students. Doing research, writing grant applications, writing research papers.

Must be nice sitting around all day". In the fire season I had a seasonal staff of 70+ and in the off season there were three of us. Lots of wrapping up the last season and getting ready for the next (reports, equipment restocking, invoice processing, hiring, giving/taking training, contract prep, etc). Although some would take a week or two off in summer, especially if they had kids and were able to, we also took our annual leave during the winter. I rarely had a "summer". 56 56points reply View More Replies...

Most clients think that the best tax Pros necessarily get them bigger refunds. If you get a smaller refund in a particular year it may be because tax laws change, because you didn't pay in as much, or because you didn't have as many deductions. Explaining stuff to people doesn't work if their eyes are all glazed over because tax law discussions bore them
Going to another tax Pro to get a bigger refund, thinking that that tax Pro is "better" may just get you an audit
But the worst myth about taxes manifest itself when scammers call people on the phone climbing to be IRS agents. They tell folks that they owe money and that authorities are coming to their house to put them in jail if they don't pay up. The truth is that the real IRS does not call anyone on the phone unless they have contacted IRS first and are expecting them to return the call. IRS does not accuse you of text fraud. Even if they truly believe you have committed tax fraud they will simply send you a letter stating that they think you have underpaid your taxes. They will give you a chance to prove your case. If you don't do this or pay them what they say you owe, they will simply Levy your paycheck or your personal property. They do not show up at your house to put you in jail. So please if a scammer calls you do not give them your credit card information or give them payments in any form. Call the real IRS and report them.

30 Of The Most Entertaining ‘ It Doesn’ t Work Like That’ Stories Told By Professionals In This Online Community
Oleg Tarasenko andSaulė Tolstych
Publish Not your original work? Add source Each era has its own folklore and its own myths. In the old days, these were mighty heroes and terrible monsters, then noble knights and beautiful princesses, cowboys shooting without a single miss, and bulletproof superheroes. The contemporary world also has its own myths, and moreover, we face them literally every day. Ask any software engineer you know how many times in their lives they have been asked to fix a desktop - simply because they are "programmers". Or how many times an accountant - even if they have never dealt with a tax report in their entire professional career - receives requests from acquaintances to sort out their taxes? Myths, myths and more myths surround literally every profession, and we create these myths ourselves. Just from watching a couple of James Bond films, we are sure that spies spend their lives doing nothing but driving around in luxury cars wearing insanely expensive suits. Just from watching a couple of children's films, we will strongly believe that the workers at the animal shelter have the most wonderful job in the world, as they pet doggos and kitties all day long. The list is literally endless, and a popular thread starter in the AskReddit community recently helped us by asking people the question: "What's your profession's myth that you regularly need to explain 'It doesn't work like that' to people?" In just a few days, the thread has racked up 2.5K upvotes and over 3.8K comments, bringing together an incredible collection of today's mythology. To make it easier for you to figure out all this abundance, Bored Panda has made a list of the most popular comments of the original thread. So now feel free to read stories on debunking modern myths, scroll to the very end, and if you have your own professional experience that can also dispel some myth literally in the wind, please be sure to tell us about it in the comments.

Pet euthanasia. There is a wildly popular post that goes around about how pets dropped off for euthanasia “look around for their owners” and know they’ve been “abandoned”. It’s nonsense, and I will defend clients dropping off until I myself die.I’ve seen what happens when owners can’t say goodbye so they don’t. The animal suffers for days to weeks until their bodies finally give out. I have literally seen a dog rotting from the inside out, SOMEHOW still alive, but the owner couldn’t commit to euthanasia so she didn’t and that dog suffered tremendously for it.
Everyone has boundaries to what they can handle. Requiring an otherwise loving, doting, and responsible owner to be present when it was all they could do to make the appointment doesn’t help pets the way you think it does.
Furthermore, in the nine years I’ve worked in this industry, I have *never* experienced what is described in that post. Ever. And my colleagues overwhelmingly agree. We love on them and hug them, and tell them they’re a good boy until they pass. **By the logic in that post, you should also never drop off for sedated or anesthetic procedures either because the process begins the same way (with sedation). How is that pet to know that death is imminent? They don’t.**
You’re projecting your emotions onto people who are already suffering, and you’re not helping pets by shaming owners, and my local, professional cohort overwhelmingly agrees. Graceishh , christopher cornelius Report Final score: 517points POST Deborah Harris Deborah Harris Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Every time I take one of my dogs to the vets they hate it, the Vet always asks me or my partner to stay whilst they do whatever it is they are doing in order to calm the dog down and help her/him relax. There is no way on Gods sweet Earth would I leave my dogs alone whilst being euthanised, no matter how much it would kill me inside I will be there at the end giving them my love and comfort .. 194 194points reply View More Replies...

Something About Weight Loss Surgeries
Weight loss surgery is NOT the easy way out. There is nothing easy about getting your stomach resized to hold a cup or less of food, it f***s up your metabolism, eating the wrong things can cause serious pain, and guess what you're on for the rest of your life? A restrictive diet. Because your stomach's tiny but you still need all the nutrients.Weight loss medications are not the easy way out either. They don't work unless the patient does, and even then, sometimes it takes months to find the right combo of meds. And there's still nutrition and exercise requirements.
Basically, being obese is really hard, and getting to a point where one is no longer obese is also really hard, so when you see someone obese, assume that they're doing their best and could use some kindness. insertcaffeine , Andres Ayrton Report Final score: 383points POST Helen Waight Helen Waight Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Yeah, there is no ‘easy way out’ of being obese and for some of us it’s not possible at all (disabled, messed up metabolism due to ED and medications…).

Defibrillators And Heart Restart
No Ma'am, we aren't going to 'shock' (defibrillate) your family member because their heart isn't actually beating.Defibrillators do not restart a heart, they reset a malfunctioning cardiac rhythm. If the heart isn't at least doing something then our options are CPR and meds until we get some kind of rhythm.

Tired Medic OTTB_Mama , Iain Cameron Report Final score: 367points POST helen gray helen gray Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Yup, the hearty-starty machine is actually a hearty-stoppy machine. A heart needs to have a shockable rhythm, that is it needs to be fibrillating (like quivering) in order to be de-fibrillated. To de-fibrillate means to stop its rhythm which usually, and certainly hopefully, prompts the heart to restart itself in a sinus rhythm. 132 132points reply View More Replies... View more comments #5

Wearing glasses doesn't make your eyes worse. There are so many misconceptions and so much false reasoning that goes into that one belief that I don't even know where to start. But I'll try anyway I guess.1) "I noticed my eyes got blurry only after wearing glasses!" That is because your eyes have adjusted to seeing things with more clarity. So of course you're now going to notice when you're missing that clarity whether it be because you took off your glasses or your prescription has changed.
2) "Wearing glasses cause eye strain!" No it doesn't. Your usual eye strain is from working long hours or staring at screens. But you're only noticing it now because the adjustment period when getting glasses for the first time or when getting a new prescription does increase eye strain until you adjust.
3) "I used to never need glasses but now I need new ones every two years! My eyes are getting worse because of glasses!" Refer back to 1. But also you didn't need glasses previously because your eyesight wasn't s**tty enough for you to notice yet or be really othered by it yet. That doesn't mean you didn't actually need them. Your eyesight was probably changing every year even while you didn't notice. Now that you are used to seeing with clarity, you'll notice when things aren't clear and crisp anymore.
I have dealt with many adults who insist they don't need glasses, either distance or reading or both, because they just don't want to concede that their vision isn't great anymore. These are adults with nearsightedness, astigmatism, and sometimes who even need reading correction. And they can't see s**t. Like why are you so stubborn. kirabera , Lisa Fotios Report Final score: 211points POST Lizzy Crit Lizzy Crit Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Because they don't want to admit they're getting old 77 77points reply View More Replies...

The "defense attorney" aspect of lawIt's not your job to lie, deceive, and cheat to get your client acquitted. You give them the best legal defense so that they receive the due process that everyone has a right to.
*"The job of the defense is to make sure the prosecution does theirs."*
If your client is guilty, then the prosecution should be able to prove it fair and square. If they can't then the quality of evidence does not meet the minimum standard and your client should go free. Full stop.
Does that mean the occasional guilty person gets away with it? Yeah. But far worse is a system where innocent people are more likely to go to jail because a s**tty prosecutor's weak arguments were accepted.
A good defense attorney would recognize a losing case and just try to get the best deal for their client, and getting the weaker charges dropped (in case the prosecutor just decides to "throw the book" at them) NoStressAccount , Sadmir Kanovicki Report Final score: 189points POST Strings Strings Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago "Better 100 guilty men go free, than 1 innocent man go to prison" 95 95points reply View More Replies...

What Are Tax Professionals Really For
Tax professional.Most clients think that the best tax Pros necessarily get them bigger refunds. If you get a smaller refund in a particular year it may be because tax laws change, because you didn't pay in as much, or because you didn't have as many deductions. Explaining stuff to people doesn't work if their eyes are all glazed over because tax law discussions bore them
Going to another tax Pro to get a bigger refund, thinking that that tax Pro is "better" may just get you an audit
But the worst myth about taxes manifest itself when scammers call people on the phone climbing to be IRS agents. They tell folks that they owe money and that authorities are coming to their house to put them in jail if they don't pay up. The truth is that the real IRS does not call anyone on the phone unless they have contacted IRS first and are expecting them to return the call. IRS does not accuse you of text fraud. Even if they truly believe you have committed tax fraud they will simply send you a letter stating that they think you have underpaid your taxes. They will give you a chance to prove your case. If you don't do this or pay them what they say you owe, they will simply Levy your paycheck or your personal property. They do not show up at your house to put you in jail. So please if a scammer calls you do not give them your credit card information or give them payments in any form. Call the real IRS and report them.

POST Tracy Tracy Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago As a pharmacy technician, we do not set the prices of your medications, it’s your insurance company. They don’t tell us why your medication costs more than it did last month, nor do we know what your deductible is. You can use coupons like GoodRx which MIGHT make your medications cheaper, but it can’t be used with your insurance. Any questions about why your medications are so expensive can only be answered by your insurance company. Please call them and not yell at us. We just fill your medications 22 22points reply Emily Spector Emily Spector Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago You forgot the pharmaceutical companies. 9 9points reply Load More Replies...

In the modern world they bring no value only costs. But boy do they have $, lobbying power, and the power to crush small competitors by DNS'ing them. Think Amazon for meds with no warehouses. Guess it makes sense Amazon is breaking into that business... 4 4points reply Cat Chat Cat Chat Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Well, to clarify, the pharmacy does set the price, based on what it cost them. How much of that price the customer actually pays is dependant on the insurance and what that covers. 2 2points reply gracen Idemmili gracen Idemmili Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago (edited) No it doesn't, insurance has a Mac price for every drug. Meaning maximum allowable cost. Doesn't matter what the actual cost to the pharmacy. Pharmacies are very hard to make profitable. Mostly in larger stores as a convenience to customers so they can get them in the doors in hopes they'll buy enough merch in other areas of the store. 0 0points reply I Am LoKitty Of Meowsgard I Am LoKitty Of Meowsgard Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Was a pharmacy tech for 12 years. Got sick of being yelled at, and covid made it worse. The nurses and doctors can also be extremely condescending, and they don't help when they tell a patient how much a medication should cost, or that it will be covered. They don't know that and need to stop telling the patients that, because those patients then get mad at us when their doctor was wrong. Anyway, I quit and I'm never looking back. 0 0points reply Jinx Jinx Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Animal rescue "oh it must be so great working with animals all day I love seeing the baby puppy pictures" no actually most of my job is either cleaning poop or heartbreaking. Most animals in rescue are sick and in terrible condition when they come in. They have trust issues they will bite. Dealing with half a litter dying or even the whole litter because their mom was practically dead when she came in because even though she'd been "hanging around a few weeks" you couldn't be bothered to call till now. Dealing with the people is just as bad. Older folks that just had to many to take care of but genuinely loved their dogs as much as you do,a*shats that breed pitt bulls even though shelters are over with them already because spaying they dog is "just wrong",the couple that are having a baby so no longer need a dog , ect. The animals that have purposely been beaten,shot,burned,cut ect. makes you loose all hope in humans. 10 10points reply Jinx Jinx Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago But is is also the small things that keeps you trying. A 6oz preemie baby finally leveling out and eating normal, the fur growing back on mange puppies giving them a mohawk look for a couple of weeks,a dog finally wagging their tail at you instead of being scared of people, a tri-paw finally recovered enough after being hit by a car to play with others, finding the perfect forever home and getting updates with happy pictures. Also only working in rescue teaches you that you can actually be happy and animal is pooping everyday. 6 6points reply Load More Replies...
